Well done to Paul Redburn (sorry) who successfully won the SFS trophy final - congratulations. I am sorry that I couldn't be there to witness the achievement. Commiserations on second and a well done to Liam to actually get to the final. Darrell what are you going to do with the trophy now as you will have to engrave Paul's name into it for 2009?

If the surname is put on, can it be the correct one and not Redmund!
The final was a very tough game, after 4 turns I was definately losing. Liam played very well and his game plan worked, whereas my counter-ploy seemed to flounder.
It all came down to what Liam describes as his one and only mistake of the game: namely moving his Bloodcrushers too far round my flank allowing me to get my Wardancers into his big Bloodletter unit. Great game.

I did drop in now and again to watch (2 very good FoW league matches on at the same time). It did look very finely balanced and tense. Both players, did very much play as gentlemen and in the spirit of the game, credit to the club ;D Shame the call of the shermans distracted me! Andy

Great game. That wasn't quite the mistake. The Bloodcrushers going round the flank was part of the plan (which was basically to prevent you flanking me by keeping my front to you with my entire army and using my Bloodcrushers to force you into combats you didn't want to participate in). The mistake was not moving the Bloodletters up far enough and closing the gap between the Bloodletters and the impassible objective marker. If I'd done that then you'd not have been able to move all of your skirmishers out of the forest in that way and they'd have (likely) been forced to move out in front of the rest my army. Good game nonetheless. Even if second place is a different way of saying "best loser"
